do you need that speed atm, if not wait a tad longer, once more households have access to fiber networks the competition for those signups will intensify.

its not so much of the speed issue but more of 'get it over and done with'..

i am finishing renovations for my new place and previous owner did not get the free cable-pulling thing last time... my electrician now has already laid trucking and everything for me in case i want it next time. i was thinking of signing up now and let the ISP guys come in and do it now when the place is still messy...

difference from regular internet is about 10 bucks difference for the whole package... so it is not much issue anyway... so i was thinking why not?

but i am just concern about issues like dropped TV when using internet.. and stuff like that...

i have tried it before, starhub fibre trial, for 3 months. Dec 10 to Feb 11It's not very stable, occassionally get dropped. Speed wise, feelgood , but after a while, the feel becomes insignificant. (Feels like using a new club but after a while, it's time to get new club!) hahaam still quite comfortable with cable nowjust sharing...
